Though the Eagles didn’t give a reason for the move, Rolle got an earful on the sidelines during one of David Wilson’s big kickoff returns Sunday night for the Giants. Wilson averaged 36.2 yards on six returns.

Rolle fell in some sort of disfavor when the Eagles stripped him of the starting weak side linebacker job and gave it to veteran Akeem Jordan. With Jordan scratched Sunday due to a hamstring injury the Eagles started Jamar Chaney on the weak side.

Training camp cut Adrian Moten (6-2, 230) gets a chance to show what he can do for the Eagles, who signed him to the active roster Tuesday.

Moten played in 10 games for the Colts in 2011. He initially was signed by the Eagles Aug. 6.

The Eagles also signed guard-center Julian Vandervelde, who was released from the Buccaneers practice squad, to the practice squad.

Kyle Nelson, added to the roster when longsnapper Jon Dorenbos sprained an ankle, was cut from the practice squad. Dorenbos got the job done against the Giants.

Vandervelde (6-2, 300) is a 2011 fifth-round pick of the Eagles. Waived by the Eagles, Vandervelde was claimed by the Bucs. The Bucs cut him from the 53-man roster and added him to the practice squad before waiving him again.

Eagles defensive linemen Jason Babin and Mike Patterson leant a hand to the team’s fight against breast cancer as they met with survivors Tuesday at the Lincoln Financial Field Pro Shop.

“It’s definitely an honor to be a part of it,” Babin said. “They have some amazing stories. Things that really don’t compare to our struggles, to our wins and losses as a team.”

Patterson, awaiting clearance to return to work after brain surgery, empathized with the survivors he met.

“It really can’t compare to cancer or anything like that,” Patterson said of his situation, one in which he blacked-out during a seizure.

“Just to fight through something like (cancer) is remarkable. It’s something to tell people about how you fought through something that’s so tough to get through. I feel really honored to be here and show them some support.”

NOTES: Believe it or not, Giants pass rusher Osi Umenyiora became the first defensive lineman to sack Mike Vick this season. And Vick gave him the sack near the end of their game Sunday as he slid to kill the clock and avoid a turnover. Those 10 other sacks of Vick are by linebackers or defensive backs … Andy Reid is 1-0 against Steelers counterpart Mike Tomlin, beating him 15-6 in 2008 at the Linc. Reid is 2-1 versus the Steelers … Eagles are a 3-point betting underdogs at Pittsburgh (1 p.m., Fox 29).
